The automatic mode is much more efficient. It triggers in pre-recieve
callbacks before any message parsing is even done. In automatic mode
you would simply say if(ip==trusted){drop;} in your pike route block.
Automatic mode will also trigger on replies.
Basically - you should use automatic mode and not be concerned about the
performance as it is definitely faster than manual mode.

As per documentation pike module can be implemented manual as well as
automatic. The way I understand it manual mode will not monitor (Not
even queue) packets for which "pike_check_req()" is not called and it
gives performance advantage as we can skip this call for trusted IPs.
First of all is my understanding correct? Or each request packet will
be queued but we will know if a source IP exceeds threshold only when
we call "pike_check_req()"?
Second thing is what about replies, is there any way to monitor in
manual mode?
I really like automatic mode but only am trying to avoid it because I
do not want trusted sources to be monitored.
